Summer Skiing

Already miss the snow? Summer glacier skiing and riding is still open at Whistler/Blackcomb where the Horstman Glacier is open for summer skiing June 22-July 28. Celeb alert: With the Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics right around the corner, many Olympic hopefuls should be out on the glacier testing out their gold medal tricks and techniques. National ski and snowboard teams from Canada, the United States, Russia, England, France and New Zealand are regulars up on the glacier. http://ow.ly/lMSs2
